Pros

Great benefits package, relatively good people to work with, looks great on the resume.

Cons

-No room for advancement. You'll be pigeonholed into the role of an administrative assistant forever. -The (some) students here have terrible egos and lack basic common sense. -The pay is what it is. Grateful to be working but for what is being paid and the work that's being done, it's depressing.

Pros

The culture is very diverse and the benefits are exceptional. The intelligence and skills of the professors, etc. are immense. As one of the leading universities in the world, there is so much to learn as an employee. Great opportunity to experience a learning machine at its best.

Cons

The gap between hourly and salary employees is immense and difficult to change. The 'professionals' have many great perks, and the hourly employees have little.

Pros

It has very good science and business professors with nearly world class research facilities, and we could leverage this connections being there.

Cons

MIT is very demanding in worklife, leaving no time for personal life and sometimes the life gets very stressful without recreation.
